AURORA, Colo. — The two finalists announced for the Aurora police chief position are in town making their case to leaders and community members through a series of interviews and meet-and-greets.
“To have this forum, to sit here and meet and greet anyone that wants to come in and talk to us from the community is extremely important,” said Ebner, who is a retired lieutenant colonel and deputy superintendent of administration for New Jersey State Police. Prior to Tuesday evening’s meet-and-greet, members of the Aurora Police Oversight Committee held a press conference to denounce the process and call for the city to start over, with members of the committee playing an active role in the selection and vetting of candidates. The members said promises of their inclusion were broken, and warned that both finalists would face doubt from the community if chosen as a result, given that both are white men.
“We want to know who was on that committee that brought it down to three people, and now down to two,” said fellow member Pastor Thomas Mayes. “What is the process? And why were we not involved?”
